The Business Of Happiness

Tarryn MacCarthy

When you feel good, you do good. In business and in life, we can do better and have a greater impact on the lives of others when we align our intentions and our actions with inner fulfillment. The Business of Happiness Podcast ignites the conversation of redefining our modern definition of success and how to find happiness in our work and, ultimately, in our lives. I am Dr. Tarryn MacCarthy, and in the first 2 decades of my career, I reveled in culturally recognizable success and drowned myself in personal turmoil and depression. Since then, I have embarked on a quest for greater purpose and joy in business and in life. Welcome to the conversation as each week we discuss together, and with successful business owners and leaders, how to strive for happiness. Together we will adventure to discover the secrets to finding true purpose and impact and to redefine our understanding of success. This is The Business of Happiness.

It highlights a crucial moment where redefining personal success can lead to a happier, more balanced life.

Are you a healthcare professional feeling the weight of burnout? In healthcare, where life is in the hands of professionals, the well-being of those providers is often overshadowed by the needs of the patients they serve.

In a recent enlightening podcast episode, Dr. Taryn MacCarthy dives into the intricate relationship between our past experiences and present emotions. She opens with a relatable anecdote — her husband's irritation at the dogs' barking one rainy morning. This seemingly mundane event unveils a deeper truth about how past stresses imprint on our bodies, triggering reactions before we consciously register a problem. Dr. MacCarthy elaborates on the phenomenon where physical reactions tether us to old experiences.

She shares some techniques to that can help.Show notes:(0:00) Intro(3:14) We get limited(6:53) Our past experiences live in our bodies(9:14) Awareness and understanding the origin(15:11) Our past does not define who we are(17:44) We start with our bodies(19:57) Recognize the thought(23:05) Our thoughts are optional(28:25) OutroIMPORTANT LINKS:Radical Happiness For Practitioners:https://www.thebizofhappiness.com/radicalhappinessAre you a woman in medicine or dentistry with an obstacle in your life that is preventing you from taking action towards greater happiness?

#291 - Heal The Hurting Parts of Your Life More Rapidly
In this episode, Dr. Tarryn MacCarthy talks about how embarking on a personal development journey can often feel like an endless pursuit of betterment, with each new year bringing its own set of resolutions and goals aimed at fixing what we perceive as broken within ourselves. But what if, instead of being fixated on what needs to be healed, we shift our focus to the aspects of ourselves that are already whole and complete? Honoring our strengths is about acknowledging them and understanding how they contribute to our well-being, financial health, and the joy we experience in life. By appreciating our gifts, we empower ourselves to approach our wounded parts with love and compassion, leading to a more holistic healing process. Our journey to self-discovery is also about celebrating the parts of ourselves that are inherently complete. It's about finding the delicate balance between personal growth and nourishing our intimate bonds. As we welcome the new year, we are encouraged to do so with a heart full of gratitude for our connections and the happiness that awaits.Show notes:(0:00) Intro(2:50) Reflection on the past year(6:21) Awareness of the contrast(9:04) Focusing on the problem(12:12) Missing what has been healed(14:09) Celebrate what is good(17:18) Coming from a place of gratitude and abundance(20:15) Reflect on your healed parts(21:09) OutroIMPORTANT LINKS:Reflect and Renew: Your Path to Success in 2024:http://www.reflectandrenew.life  Radical Happiness For Practitioners:https://www.thebizofhappiness.com/radicalhappinessAre you a woman in medicine or dentistry with an obstacle in your life that is preventing you from taking action towards greater happiness?

#290 - The Most Potent Feminine Power For Greater Abundance
Amid the holiday cheer and the nostalgic end-of-year reflections, a lesson in the profound power of receivership took center stage. In this episode, Dr. Tarryn MacCarthy talks about the delicate balance between giving too much and not allowing ourselves to receive and how this imbalance can lead to a lack of fulfillment and burnout. It's a transformative shift from the conventional method of goal-setting to one that allows for greater abundance and fulfillment by being open to receiving the universe's offerings. She encourages us to slow down, allow unexpected outcomes, and practice unconditional gratitude. This holistic approach to receivership promises to enhance our well-being and capacity to give and achieve success.Show notes:(0:00) Intro(2:13) The art of receiving(7:52) Receivership(9:48) The importance of receiving(13:32) Allow wealth and abundance(18:45) Letting go of the outcome(20:27) Unconditional gratitude(22:05) Slow down(27:49) OutroIMPORTANT LINKS:Reflect and Renew: Your Path to Success in 2024http://www.reflectandrenew.life  Radical Happiness For Practitionershttps://www.thebizofhappiness.com/radicalhappinessIf you would like to connect with Tarryn directly to find out if Radical Happiness is right for you, please use this link to connect with her one-on-one:https://calendly.com/drtarrynmaccarthy/complementary-prosperity-and-possibilities-chatSign up to Radical Happiness and become the Happiest Practitioner: https://www.thebizofhappiness.com/radicalhappinessPlease join my Facebook group: Business Of Happiness Hive, so we can all take this journey to find fulfillment and happiness together.

#289 - Enormous Success WITHOUT Stress
In today's fast-paced, result-oriented world, the association between success and stress has become a deeply ingrained societal belief. However, what if we could redefine success and dissociate it from stress? In this episode, Dr. Tarryn MacCarthy shares her epiphany about how stress and feeling overwhelmed are not necessarily caused by external factors but are often the results of our own habits and patterns. It highlights how we often mistake overworking for success, a mindset deeply rooted in us. The concept of success without stress may seem impossible, but this episode explores the possibility of breaking free from old programming and embracing a new paradigm. It emphasizes the importance of curiosity in overcoming stress and highlights how stress hampers our ability to think creatively and connect with others genuinely.Show notes:(4:02) Making time for self-care(9:37) Feeling not good enough(13:19) Definition of success(15:44) We can choose calm(20:26) Success with ease and calm(24:28) Create safety(28:22) The only choice is calm(32:00) OutroIMPORTANT LINKS:Reflect and Renew: Your Path to Success in 2024http://www.reflectandrenew.life  Radical Happiness For Practitionershttps://www.thebizofhappiness.com/radicalhappinessIf you would like to connect with Tarryn directly to find out if Radical Happiness is right for you, please use this link to connect with her one-on-one:https://calendly.com/drtarrynmaccarthy/complementary-prosperity-and-possibilities-chatSign up to Radical Happiness and become the Happiest Practitioner: https://www.thebizofhappiness.com/radicalhappinessPlease join my Facebook group: Business Of Happiness Hive, so we can all take this journey to find fulfillment and happiness together.
